[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haydonny:
Hi community!

First time posting.

So, my SM-G900I (shipped from Taiwan to Aus) recently started bootlooping so i decided to reflash a stock rom. I initially flashed an XSU version of the G900I stock and then a BRI version of stock. This didnt remove the bootloop. I then installed TWRP and cleared all the necessary caches, formatted data and everything else. still in bootloop.

I installed CM13 in TWRP install menu and it still didnt boot. I've also tried pulling the battery for extended periods of time. I dabbled in terminal commands but it was all a bit above me!

is there anything else i can do or is the phone dead? it can still enter download mode and TWRP. is this a battery problem? in TWRP the battery says it's 80% charged so it seems to hold charge.

Thanks for your help.

Cheers.

Did you try flashing the stock rom and PIT file with ODIN?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haydonny:
I did. 16GB G900I pit file was flashed alongside BL, AP, CP, and CSC files (got directly from Kies).

I am able to install a custom recovery and access those menus but i can't get in to the stock recovery menu.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] haydonny:
Hi!

Thanks for the quick response but there are none there for G900I models. Just a question, how do these differ from manually putting in pit, AP, BL, CP and CSC seperately?

cheers.

You made a wipe of System, Data, Cache and Dalvik cache? If yes you tried Wipe Internal Storage too?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] waheem:
AP = Android Platform

BL = Bootloader

CP = Modem (radio)

CSC = Region & Network operator

PIT = Partition table

Lunch Odin tick ap and select pda' ap' code acoding your downloaded firmware tick BL select bootloder

Tick cp and select modem

Tick csc select csc

Tick pit and select pit

Start

A bad pit can bricked your phone and bootloops

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattdiehl83:
I am not having ANY luck with changing the baseband. No matter how many times I flash modem/radio it remains at the same version. My data connectivity is weak and I know that this is the cause. Any ideas and or links to proper files (maybe mine are incorrect) to get everything leveled out.

Stock (Reverted back)

Android: 6.0.1

Sec. Patch: Feb 1

Baseband: MDM9625

Kernel: 3.10.40 g4b7e9ba. Thursday Dec 10

Build: MMB29Q
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scryan:
Download the factory image, unpack it

boot to fasboot/bootloader mode

fastboot flash radio <filename>

reboot phone.

https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images?hl=en (obviously download files for shamu)
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Not_A_Dev:
There was no change in radio/baseband from MMB29S to MMB29Q. What band are you surfing on, band 4 or 12?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mattdiehl83:
So the MDM is the latest? I know when I first purchased the phone and rebuilt it (it was damaged) it was full stock, seemed to work fine but then again I didn't go full tilt into it. I rooted, customized, and multi-ROM'd it. From there I just can never have good reception, data just randomly drops and greys out. So I decided to revert back to the full stock. Total wipe of the device to start bare and flashed the FEB 1. MMB. But no matter how many individual flashes of the radio I flash (named MMB) it kicks back to MDM.

Now I know I went wayyy beyond what you asked so I will go back to that, how can I find the band I am on?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Not_A_Dev:
Yes. MDM9625_104662.22.05.32R is the most recent radio. Btw, we typically mention the end of that string when we reference baseband, iow, 32R.

Like myself, you are on T-Mobile (judging by your info), so you're either surfing on band 4 or on band 12. Band 12 is the preferable band, because it provides you with a stronger cell signal when inside of buildings than band 4 does. Unfortunately, in my neck of the woods, T-Mo does not offer band 12 (yet), so I have no choice but to surf on band 4. I don't know if band 12 is available in your area. To check which band you're currently on, download LTE Discovery from the Play Store.
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] OffTheChainz:
I've been hooked on this game called Kill Shot Bravo its plays fairly good on my phone.

Ive tried numerous attempts to play it on SM-T520 pro 10.1 with a clean install of CM 12.1 nightly and/or resurrection final. Every time it crashes at the game logo of HotHead.

I wanted to try it on a old 4.4 rom but can't find one that works..

I cannot get Grave Ds 4.4 to boot and I've tried using both kernals.

Can someone give me a suggestion possibly to another rom to try or verify if the game is working for them?

Thank you
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] coco1476:
Same thing for me. I have the sm-t520 running latest cm12.1 and the game crashes on the logo.

If you want to try out Grave rom, just flash the rom and then before you try to reboot, just flash the stock kernel for the sm-t520. So in another word flash rom, flash stock kernel, reboot system and let it sit 5 minutes. This is what I did for Grave rom to work on my tab, every other kernel didn't work on my sm-t520.

So in the end KSB does run on Grave 3.0?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] OffTheChainz:
Bychance seen that stock kernal you used ? I tried 2 different ones.

And did you go Grave via TWRP from CM

Or did you Odin stock and goto grave?
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] coco1476:
I used this stock kernel from GraveD thread https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95784891001617139

I odin stock before flashing GraveD, rooted with chainfire, installed twrp recovery. Booted in twrp recovery, flashed GaveD rom, flashed stock kernel and rebooted system and everything was running perfect.

---------- Post added at 10:34 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:31 AM ----------

Sorry I tried the game on cm12.1 only, i am not sure if it would play on GraveD rom but I would say it would play since GraveD was close to stock without bloat and some tweaks to it.

Glad to help. I have spent days on my tab a couple of months ago trying to get GraveD rom to work and the only way to get it to boot correctly was with stock kernel. Last week I flashed cm12.1 to give it a run because I was getting tired of a stock look but I might go back to GraveD for better battery
[Galaxy Tab Pro 12.2, 10.1, 8.4 Q&A, Help & Trouble] OffTheChainz:
Roger…

Sadly I can't Odin back to Stock for a couple weeks out on business. Heard previously coming from cm to Grave didn't work well just trying to do it through TWRP had to start from scratch.

I really like Ressurection 12.1 final was smooth and fast. Battery life seemed good when in airplane mode w/ screen 50 to 75%… multiple hours of movies on a airplane without a charge.

Ive been playing KSB on my Note 3 with beansrom 2 and its flaky.

I put KSB on a Note 2 with CM12.1 and it runs beautiful.

Just wished it would work on my T520…

Its always something lol ?

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] chaotic_jose:
Dont get lollipop, get KitKat, if you install lollipop, you'll have locked bootloader like me and you wont be able to downgrade, i recomend you getting KitKat and installing CyanogenMod 3

The big question before you do anything is...what bootloader do you currently have and is it currently unlocked, or locked?

Don't rush to install anything until you fully understand the implications of doing so.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4] EdgardoSchiffer:
There are some Odin packages on development section that does not includes any bootloader, if you wanna try any stock rom (kitkat, lollipop) you should try any of those packages, because your bootloader(probably MK2) gives you a little more freedom that most of newer bootloaders.

By extracting attached flashable zip, you'll know how to change Galaxy Alpha boot logo.

WARNING:*Don't use any image created or edited by Linux image editor (i.e. Gimp, Gwenview, Krita), you'll got a black screen of death! A simple, powerfull, nice, and free Paint.NET - but Windows - image editor worked!

The logo.jpg should be 720x1280!!!

BACKUP:*If something goes wrong, flash original-boot-logo-g850.zip using TWRP recovery.

Some technical explanations:

There is a script inside my TWRP flashable zip. I modify Galaxy Tab3 8.0 boot logo changer to Galaxy Alpha one. This script will flash a logo.jpg overwrite the original one. I called this in-place flashing because only logo.jpg is replaced, the other files in the param partition untouched. Attached boot logo TWRP flashable zip should be compatible for all G850x family but I only test it on G850S,K,L.

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] brenton393:
bought a Samsung s4 m919 (Tmobile) unlocked about 3 weeks ago. thought it had a lot of bloatware so I rooted it and put CyanogenMod on it and it worked great (first time for me so i took awhile, but i got it working with no problems). took it to the nearest metro store to put a sims card in it to be told me it was not unlocked. ended up going back to stock rom to try to unlock it. frustrated i took it to another metro store and learned it was actually unlocked and was able to leave the store with activated sims card in it. So then i decided to custom rom it again since I already did it. I don't know what the hell I did differently but nothing seemed to work and I ended up with no recovery mod or system. The only things that works is the download mode.

So Ive tried flashing the stock rom using odin like 4 times and each time everything seemed to go well except the phone still can't turn on. The Samsung "logo" flashes for a second and then the phone shuts off. Any advice, is it a lost cause?

After i installed remix, i booted back into windows and used rmx tools to expand my data partition to 34gb and then i went back to remix and everything worked fine. i installed google services and rebooted a few times and everything was still working. then, to get better performance out of it, i plugged the 40gb hdd back into my motherboard via the ide cable. Now whenever i try to boot into remix again it gets stuck on "detecting android-x86" and won't do anything else. The hard drive status light also stops.

[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EzStyles:
Hello all,

I have a Galaxy S5 G900T and have a fresh install of the latest Android 6.0 (2016-02-09) nightly. It is working perfectly but I am trying to encrypt the phone and it is not working. This worked previously on Android 5.1. When I go to Settings > Security Encrypt phone, it doesn't ask for any kind of password, I press Encrypt Phone and it immediately reboots, briefly shows the green android logo as if it's going to encrypt then shows the Cyanogenmod boot animation. I have left it on this for approximately 45 minutes before I unplugged the phone and removed the battery, then powered it back on to a normal startup. I again tried the same thing after setting a lock screen with exactly the same results.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EzStyles:
So this apparently has something to do with Supersu and systemless root (guessing) as I did a factory reset and reinstalled the OS without installing Supersu and this time encryption worked. But now I am having trouble changing the encryption password.

I have tried the "vdc cryptfs changepw password default_password newpwd" from an adb shell method but it seems to do nothing.

I can set a password via lockscreen, but I'd like to have my boot encryption password decoupled from my lockscreen password. Does anyone have this working?
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EzStyles:
Ok I figured it out. After running "vdc cryptfs changepw password default_password newpwd" you must run "vdc cryptfs verifypw newpwd". All is working now, hopefully this helps someone else out
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jkeuclid:
Interesting find, I can indeed confirm this as I've been experiencing the same issue with my GS4A SGH-i537. I can encrypt fine with a fresh OS, but post root SuperSU install, it hangs at the boot screen immediately after a brief screen of the android robot.
[Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EzStyles:
So turns out everything isn't working as it should after all. It is not recognizing the encryption password now. I'm going to post a new topic though as this issue isn't really the same as the original here
